::Yep, it is a variation on a theme, but during development, it could be that all items could not be compiled but the items for one particular top level might be compilable. Extracting and compiling just the items for a particular top level allows work to continue. It looks as if the J output is OK. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 20:38, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
::: When I first saw this, it brought to mind code optimizations where a relaxation of complex ordering rules could reduce processing time, yet still provide results good enough to satisfy core requirements in problem context. I'll be watching with interest to see where specializations for this task crop up. --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 20:46, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
